Shawescape @ Detroit MOVEMENT 2025 [Detroit Stage]

Track 2 from my album iMAKE GOLD is here! I HAD to bring in my bro Buff1 for this one. Jamall Bufford is hands down my favorite emcee. Biased? Maybe. But when your brother’s been on point since day one—delivery, bars, storytelling, crowd control, authenticity, and cleverness—it’s just facts. So… what chu mean? Ha! ✨️

This joint came to life during an Athletic Mic League retreat in Michigan. One night, we did our own version of Rhythm Roulette—picking 2 records and making a beat from them. Then, my crew and a bunch of creative homies threw names in a hat to form random groups and create a song. Fate put me and Buff together in the same group, so you already know we had to cook up another classic!

Much love to everyone rocking with the tracks so far!
I’ll be dropping new music track by track as this journey unfolds.

Track three added to the iMAKE GOLD compliation album! ✨️

This joint started in 2021. I first heard C-Red rhyme from #WhiteCoatWednesdays on her IG. Every other day I tuned in to hear her rhyme - pen game, delivery, spirit, voice - Dope! One day I showed her some love on a post and she hit me back like "we should work!" YES! I knew we could make something cold. A little after I connected with C-Red, I was watching this documentary about the history of Sugarcane and the transatlantic slave trade. The seriousness of the documentary, inspired the feel of the beat when I was creating. Raw, serious, and it also reminded me of some ol' mid- 90s Kool G Rap sound. I could hear C-Red's voice and flow complimenting the beat, so I sent the idea to her. YO! When I first heard what she sent back, I played it like 10 times back to back.

Much love to everyone rocking with the tracks so far!

Here's the 4th track from my album, iMAKE GOLD! (Pronounced: Make Gold!) ✨️

"This track started in 2017 at Assemble Sound in Detroit during my first studio session with Nolan The Ninja. Nolan was locked in and I was inspired. He came up with the title and wrote his verse about having a Moetic mindset - young, fly, hustling to win. I was a fan of a Hiphop group called the Fat Killahz for years and wanted to work with emcee Fatt Father, so I reached out to him to complete it. Some more classic Detroit heat!"

Shoutout to everyone tuning in and rocking with the tracks so far!
Much more music to come.

Track 5 off my project iMAKE GOLD!

I met SHAD at DJ Jazzy Jeff’s Playlist Retreat (real dope guy!). I was familiar with his music before and loved how he rhymed. SHAD is always posting freestyles on Instagram of him just rhyming over instrumentals. There was this one verse he wrote over Kardinal Offishall's "Ol' Killin Time" beat that inspired me. While listening to SHAD's effortless flow and how he described and displayed dope emceeing simultaneously, I heard the whole beat in my head immediately. I started building the drums first, then listened to his vocals over just the drum track. Chopped up a sample then sent him a demo. SHAD loved it and wanted to recut his vocals to the beat. The track that you hear now became the first joint we ever made together —which led to me producing SHAD's "REEL SPEAKERS EP".
(Please check that out too if you haven't 🔊)

First word he recorded over my beat?
“Classic.”
Shout out to the brother SHAD! 🙏

Track 6 off my project, iMAKE GOLD! is here!

This one is special for me. Of course ya’ll know my brother, the alien Wes from Athletic Mic League. Incredible lyricist. Amazing person and creative. One of ONE. But did ya’ll know he makes beats too? He goes by Scale Hands. A few years back, Scale Hands was in Los Angeles and pulled up to The Bassment (my studio), armed with two SP-404 MKII's. I cued up some drums on my Maschine, and in real time, Scale Hands chopped up this sample on the 404 as the drums looped. Lush Lofi vibes ✨️ I’ve written rhymes with Wes, shot photos, he’s designed the cover art for my first two albums and lended his valuable creative wisdom that inspired me for decades. I’ve performed on stage live with him, and now it’s an honor to say we've produced a beat together. Good times!

Track 7 off my continuous compilation album, iMAKE GOLD!

Gotta time travel a bit. This joint was born in 2020—a year of madness, pain, protest, and profound racial reckoning. Amid COVID's chaos, we mourned George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and carried the weight of Sandra Bland and Eric Garner's tragedies a decade ago. Creating music felt heavy for me. Many ideas I began from that time period remain unreleased because I wasn't in a good head space. Yet from that grief, art emerged. This is one of those records.

I made the beat back in 2018. I remember there was an album cover sitting in my studio that had the face of a black man that kept staring at me while I was working on the beat. I took it as a sign to make the beat tell the story of those eyes. I had someone in mind that I knew could bring the feel more to life. I sent a demo beat to my Playlist Retreat brother, Philly legend Rich Medina (DJ, poet, educator)—not just for his iconic voice, but I needed to hear his perspective on our fractured world. His line "Black Codes in Stealth Mode" hit me and that's what inspired the song title. It speaks to the resilience of Black and Brown communities navigating decades of systemic trauma… and to our unbroken spirit.

Love to Rich for blessing the jawn 👑
